Faster method: TRUNCATE or DROP a table?

I am working a a project in the University and I need to re-create a table. For that task, I’m thinking in two ways: using TRUNCATE, or dropping the table and create it again.

TRUNCATE is a SQL sentence that empties a table, and for using it, you need to be granted as using DROP priviledge. autokey is reset to zero. The second option is using DROP a table, and create it again using CREATE TABLE.
